myp?psales.com - ASP.NET sprint to MVP finish line for Beta Launch!

Hi - Thanks for stopping by. If you crave an ASP.net/MSSQL challenge we'd love to chat about the exciting project we're almost ready to launch. We think you'll really enjoy working on the final sprint helping taking us into Beta/funding (and if you have fun, hopefully stay beyond that!). What is it? [login to view URL] is a dynamic pricing retail platform allowing shoppers to save, share and earn as much as they want by trading deals with each other. How does it work? Everyday mypopsales launches several limited time and quantity pop-sales on products, services and experiences (on average each sale lasting 48 hours with 100 available deals in each sale). The 3 core front end user steps are: 1. SAVE - users join a sale to reserve the unique price they see on screen; they then pay that price for the deal if the min number of deals get sold before the deadline. Users can save anything between 99.8% and 15% off the RRP depending on when they reserve a deal. 2. SHARE - users share and promote the deal to their networks via fb, twitter, email etc to ensure the tipping point is reached. If the min number of deals are not sold; then the deal is off. 3. EARN - If the min number of deals are sold before the deadline, the deal is on and users with reserved deals can resell their deals on at a higher price to earn money until times up. What makes this platform unique is that prices are constantly changing and peg demand based on the liquidity of supply generated by users themselves. We believe that in this fre-emarketplace, individuals will pursue their own self-interest (the impulse to Save or Earn), and the consequences of this will be beneficial for the rest of society (Brands, Users, Merchants and us) What framework is the current platform built on? Framework and Language: ASP [login to view URL] with C# 4.0 (4.5) Database: MS SQL Server 2008 R2 Front End: XHTML/CSS and jQuery (HTML 5) UI Designs have been coded and front-end developed. The existing platform has been developed off-shore and has been reviewed by a UK consultancy for quality assurance. We're now approaching an important stage working towards a beta launch and require a reliable hacker in London we can meet more in person and bug. What do you need to do? What\'s still outstanding for the MVP? - Social Media Integration - Email Integration - Partial-Payment Gateway Integration. - Testing Deal Logic/Refinement - Basic Admin Reports (Sales Reports) - Beta Bugs/Fixing Support We have all the source code solutions/versions, databases, published copies and you\'ll also have the support of our existing software development team should you require it. We have detailed test scripts for the MVP which highlight the deliverables. When can you start? Ideally now would be great because the sooner we launch the MVP, the sooner we can go back to investors with data and have a full-scale launch. Why have we reached out to you? We\'re looking for an experienced and ambitious ASP.NET developer to help refine the product on a fixed rate basis to ensure the MVP can be used for our beta launch with the 4k registered users we have. You\'ve worked with teams we know and have ecommerce/financial experience. We\'re a bootstrapped start-up for now and keen to meet hackers who appreciate less is more, aren\'t afraid to step into a challenge and who can openly offer their opinions. We know that with an agency, there\'s always that important personal touch missing which only a hardcore coder can bring. There\'ll be a potential opportunity for someone be a part of the management team post-successful beta/funding. If this sounds interesting to you, let's catch up for a coffee or lunch in London so we can meet in person, show you what we've already achieved and thrash out a plan that will hopefully see the site taking over Groupon, MadBid and maybe even Ebay. Happy Bidding, all the best Sam [The Administrator removed this message for containing contact details which breaches our Terms and Conditions.]
